Answer 1

Answer:

3.5 Rs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Somnath purchased bananas at a rate of 35 Rs. per dozen i.e 35 Rs. per 12 bananas.

It is given that he sells those bananas at 20% profit, then the selling price of one dozen of bananas will be 35(1+0.20)= 42 Rs.

Now, one dozen =12 pieces.

Hence, the selling price of one banana will be (42/12)=3.5 Rs.

1 dozen = 12 bananas

Cost of 1 dozen bananas = 35rs.
